Give A Detailed Explanation Of HIPAA Encryption Requirements

HIPPA protects all the sensitive information of PHI (Protected Health Information). The health information of the patient like the disease, payment, and treatment should be kept private between patients and institutions, and this is the primary requirement of HIPAA to keep the information encrypted.

Yes, it is necessary to keep the information encrypted because all the information of the patient should safeguard so that none should use the information to harm anyone.
